It’s not a party without a playlist. And it’s certainly not a holiday party-worthy playlist without a little help from music supervisor Randall Poster. We asked the Tory Daily contributor to round up the best songs and jingles — from Bruce Springsteen’s Santa Claus Is Coming To Town to Aretha Franklin’s Rock Steady — to play at our end-of-year fête.
